Schlossstra\u00dfe is located near the central market square in Neustrelitz. Behind an inconspicuous entrance door at number 12\/13 is the Cultural Quarter Mecklenburg-Strelitz, which we visited.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
The building of today’s Cultural Quarter can look back on quite an eventful history.
From 1748 to 1795, the courtyard building housed the ducal mint of Mecklenburg-Strelitz. Later (1869), the property belonged to the North German Postal District.
In 1871 it was sold to the Imperial Imperial Post Office. The neighbouring property at Schlo\u00dfsta\u00dfe 13 was acquired by the Imperial Imperial Post Office in 1898, and a new building was erected over the next few years, which now housed the Imperial Post Office. Here, customers could also make use of telephone and telegraph services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The building was a post office until 2000, when it ceased to be an imperial post office, of course. In the days of the GDR, you could make phone calls to the West here with a special registration. An old telephone booth in the entrance to the museum is a reminder of that time. You should pick up the phone in the telephone booth. You can listen to an account of such a telephone call.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
